My daughter loved this beach. We got there as soon as it opened which was the way to go. The sand…read morewas nice and the shallow area was great for a toddler. However... One pretty major negative was the amount of goose droppings. At first we thought it was an inconsiderate dog owner but the "mess" was everywhere along the shore. Maybe we chose a bad spot on the beach but it was pretty icky. As a pay-to-go beach, I expected more.

If you have a hankering for getting out into the wilderness of the world, the second best option to…read moreBear country would be Middle Creek lake. Save for the select few creeper vans loitering in the six or so camping spots, this place is wild. Metcalf avenue literally goes through the center of this lake! As you're driving down medcalf you can see the road go into the water and you can see the other side of the road on the other side of the lake! It has unbelievable bass fishing, it's a bit Rocky on the western part of the lake, so take note. Very shallow on the eastern part of the lake, great for crappie and bluegill. I go to Middle Creek regularly for fall and winter day camps. We go out there and make a fire and go catfishing all day long, have a little picnic. It's very secluded and intimate. I've been there dozens of times, once I went out there and seasoned a hammer-forged wok over a roaring camp fire. Careful of the hackberry trees and there massive thorns that happened to me everywhere, but the park service does a pretty good job of keeping this place tidy. There is however a bunch people that go out there with lots of trash and throw it in the fireplace right before they leave so, sometimes you have quite a bit of trash to pick out because who the hell burns garbage? But fishing is great on this lake, and if you have a fish finder and go out by Metcalf you can actually detect the road under the water and on either side there's so many species of fish that it's worth a days travels! The boat ramp is all gravel and dirt, so there's that. Still good though. Happy fishing!

The paved trail is clearly marked with signs to help one find bathrooms, marina, disc golf, etc. They have spaces for kids and families at the Beaver Shelt, as well as a music park section near the Eagle Landing Building. There are at least two car charging stations at the marina. There may be more around the park itself, but I did not happen to come across any.

Such a nice lake just right down the street from me. Lake of Olathe has so many things you can do…read morelike rent kayaks, splash pad for the kids, swimming area at the lake, two play area with slides, trails, fishing, frisbee throw games (don't know what it's called), waterfalls you can play in, streams you can play in, bbq areas, building for renting out weddings, etc., and so many more. It is clean, up-kept, and I always feel safe when I go alone. It would be a nice place to start having concerts, activities like Halloween hunts and things of that nature hosted here.

They moved the boat from the hoist and made it ready for us to board. They went over some of the more basic rules. The pontoon we rented was a tri-hull. The boat was relatively new and everything worked well. I especially like the dept finder whereas we were suspect of shallow waters. Got our deposit back quickly. We also took a pull behind water tube for the kids. The staff was kind, friendly and very knowledgeable. When we returned the boat it was very easy.
